For each new student, their first lesson is what I like to call the Intro Jumpstart Session. This is a highly personalized introductory lesson that sets students up for success and lets them get to see how they like working with me! In the Jumpstart Session, students: 🎵 Jump into learning to play one of their favorite songs 🎵 Receive a full creative assessment identifying their musical interests and goals, highlighting their creative strengths, and addressing any musical challenges they may have faced in the past 🎵 Develop step-by-step guide with me to accomplishing their creative goals using my Success Roadmap 🎵 Receive a customized creative challenge after the lesson to keep them moving toward their goals
